NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2010

(Unaudited)

(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES –

Basis of Presentation

In management's opinion, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of Comstock Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries ("Comstock" or the "Company") as of March 31, 2010 and the related results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although Comstock believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in Comstock's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily an indication of the results expected for the full year.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Comstock and its wholly owned subsidiaries.  Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods' financial statements to conform to the current presentation.

Marketable Securities

As of March 31, 2010 the Company owned 5,317,069 shares of Stone Energy Corporation common stock.  The Company does not exert influence over the operating and financial policies of Stone Energy Corporation, and has classified its investment in these shares as an available-for-sale security in the consolidated balance sheets.  Available-for-sale securities are accounted for at fair value, with any unrealized gains and unrealized losses not determined to be other than temporary reported in the consolidated balance sheet within accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component of stockholders' equity.  The Company utilizes the specific identification method to determine the cost of any securities sold.

8

COMSTOCK RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Continued)

The Company reviews its available-for-sale securities to determine whether a decline in fair value below the respective cost basis is other than temporary.  If the decline in fair value is judged to be other than temporary, the cost basis of the security is written down to fair value and the amount of the write-down is included in the consolidated statement of operations.  As of March 31, 2010, the estimated fair value of the Stone Energy Corporation shares, based on the market price for the shares, was $94.4 million after recognizing an unrealized gain after income taxes of $29.6 million.

In April 2010 the Company sold 520,000 of the shares in Stone Energy Corporation for proceeds of $10.5 million.

Reserve for Future Abandonment Costs

Comstock's asset retirement obligations relate to future plugging and abandonment expenses on its oil and gas properties and related facilities disposal.  The following table summarizes the changes in Comstock's total estimated liability during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2010			2009
	(In thousands)
Beginning future abandonment costs	$	6,561		$	5,480
Accretion expense		94			75
New wells placed on production and changes in estimates		78			130
Liabilities settled and properties sold		(17	)		(7	)
Future abandonment costs — end of period	$	6,716		$	5,678

Derivative Financial Instruments

Comstock periodically uses swaps, floors and collars to hedge oil and natural gas prices and interest rates.  Swaps are settled monthly based on differences between the prices specified in the instruments and the settlement prices of futures contracts.  Generally, when the applicable settlement price is less than the price specified in the contract, Comstock receives a settlement from the counterparty based on the difference multiplied by the volume or amounts hedged.  Similarly, when the applicable settlement price exceeds the price specified in the contract, Comstock pays the counterparty based on the difference.  Comstock generally receives a settlement from the counterparty for floors when the applicable settlement price is less than the price specified in the contract, which is based on the difference multiplied by the volume hedged.  For collars, generally Comstock receives a settlement from the counterparty when the settlement price is below the floor and pays a settlement to the counterparty when the settlement price exceeds the cap.  No settlement occurs when the settlement price falls between the floor and cap.

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company had natural gas swaps which fixed the price at $8.00 per Mmbtu (at the Houston Ship Channel) for 520,000 Mmbtu's per month of production.  The Company designated these swaps as cash flow hedges.  Realized gains of $5.9 million were included in oil and gas sales for the three months ended March 31, 2009 related to these swaps.  Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, to the extent they were effective in offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged risk, were recorded in other comprehensive income until the hedged item was recognized in earnings.  Any change in fair value resulting from ineffectiveness was recognized in oil and gas sales as an unrealized gain or loss.  No amounts relating to the hedge ineffectiveness were recognized in oil and gas sales during the three months ended March 31, 2009.  The Company had no derivative financial instruments outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Stock-Based Compensation

Comstock accounts for employee stock-based compensation under the fair value method.  Compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the award vesting period.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized $4.2 and $3.7 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense within general and administrative expenses related to stock option and restricted stock grants.

The Company had 286,620 stock options outstanding at March 31, 2010, of which 263,120 were exercisable.  Total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options of $0.3 million as of March 31, 2010 is expected to be recognized over a period of .7 years.

As of March 31, 2010, Comstock had 1,698,500 shares of unvested restricted stock outstanding at a weighted average grant date fair value of $37.32 per share.  Total unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested restricted stock grants of $39.3 million as of March 31, 2010 is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.8 years.

Income Taxes

The following is an analysis of consolidated income tax expense:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010			2009
	(In thousands)
Current provision (benefit)	$	216		$	(1,411	)
Deferred benefit		(55	)		(721	)
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes	$	161		$	(2,132	)

Deferred income taxes are provided to reflect the future tax consequences or benefits of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements using enacted tax rates.  The difference between the Company's customary rate of 35% and the effective tax rate on income before income taxes is due to the following:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010		2009
Tax at statutory rate	35.0%		35.0%
Tax effect of:
Nondeductible stock-based compensation	(26.7%	)	(7.3%	)
State income taxes, net of federal benefit	(1.0%	)	0.1%
Net operating loss carryback adjustments	(4.9%	)	—%
Other	(0.3%	)	(0.4%	)
Effective tax rate	2.1%		27.4%

In determining its 2010 full year effective tax rate, the amount of the Company’s projected non-deductible compensation as compared to its projected pre-tax income (loss) has the effect of lowering the expected provision (benefit) from the normal combined federal and state rate of 36% to 7%.  The Company’s 2009 tax returns and net operating loss carryback claims were filed during the first three months of 2010.  The projected 2010 full year effective tax rate differs from the tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2010 of 2% due to finalization of the Company’s 2009 net operating loss carrybacks.

Fair Value Measurements

As of March 31, 2010, the Company held certain items that are required to be measured at fair value.  These included cash equivalents held in money market funds and marketable securities comprised of shares of Stone Energy Corporation common stock.  Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  A three-level hierarchy is followed for disclosure to show the extent and level of judgment used to estimate fair value measurements:

Level 1 – Inputs used to measure fair value are unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

Level 2 – Inputs used to measure fair value, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date through correlation with market data, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and quoted prices in markets that are not active.  Level 2 also includes assets and liabilities that are valued using models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment since the input assumptions used in the models, such as interest rates and volatility factors, are corroborated by readily observable data from actively quoted markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 – Inputs used to measure fair value are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment.  These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management's estimates of market participant assumptions.

The following table summarizes financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value as of March 31, 2010:

	Carrying Value Measured at Fair Value as of March 31, 2010		Level 1
	(In thousands)
Items measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair value of the Company's other financial instruments as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is determined without the effect of any outstanding potentially dilutive stock options and diluted earnings per share is determined with the effect of outstanding stock options that are potentially dilutive.  Unvested share-based payment awards containing nonforfeitable rights to dividends are considered to be participatory securities and are included in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.  Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were determined as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010							2009
						Per							Per

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010		2009
	(In thousands)
Unvested restricted stock		1,699		1,503

The shares of unvested restricted stock were excluded as anti-dilutive to earnings per share in 2009 due to the net loss.

Stock options and warrants to purchase common stock at exercise prices in excess of the average actual stock price for the period that were anti-dilutive and that were excluded from the determination of diluted earnings per share were as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010		2009
	(In thousands except per share data)
Weighted average anti-dilutive stock options		40		536
Weighted average exercise price	$	54.36	$	22.88

In 2010, the excluded options that were anti-dilutive were at exercise prices in excess of the average stock price for the period.  All options outstanding at March 31, 2009 were excluded as anti-dilutive to earnings per share due to the net loss in 2009.

Comstock has a $850.0 million bank credit facility with Bank of Montreal, as the administrative agent.  The credit facility is a five-year revolving credit commitment that matures on December 15, 2011.  Indebtedness under the credit facility is secured by substantially all of Comstock's assets and is guaranteed by all of its subsidiaries.  The credit facility is subject to borrowing base availability, which is redetermined semiannually based on the banks' estimates of the Company’s future net cash flows of oil and natural gas properties.  The borrowing base may be affected by the performance of Comstock's properties and changes in oil and natural gas prices.  The determination of the borrowing base is at the sole discretion of the administrative agent and the bank group.  As of March 31, 2010, the borrowing base was $500.0 million, all of which was available.  The borrowing base was reaffirmed on April 30, 2010.  Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest, based on the utilization of the borrowing base, at Comstock's option at either (1) LIBOR plus 2% to 2.75% or (2) the base rate (which is the higher of the administrative agent's prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or 30 day LIBOR plus 1.5%) plus 0.5% to 1.25%.  A commitment fee of 0.5% is payable annually on the unused borrowing base.  The credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the payment of cash dividends in excess of $40.0 million, limit the amount of consolidated debt that Comstock may incur and limit the Company's ability to make certain loans and investments.  The only financial covenants are the maintenance of a ratio of current assets, including availability under the bank credit facility, to current liabilities of at least one-to-one and maintenance of a minimum tangible net worth.  The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2010.

Comstock has $175.0 million of 6⅞% senior notes outstanding which mature on March 1, 2012.  Interest is payable semiannually on each March 1 and September 1.  The Company also has $300.0 million of 8⅜% senior notes outstanding which mature on October 15, 2017.  Interest is payable semiannually on each April 15 and October 15.  The senior notes are unsecured obligations of Comstock and are guaranteed by all of Comstock’s subsidiaries.  The subsidiary guarantors are 100% owned and all of the guarantees are full and conditional and joint and several.  As of March 31, 2010, Comstock had no assets or operations which are independent of its subsidiaries.  There are no restrictions on the ability of Comstock to obtain funds from its subsidiaries through dividends or loans.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors of

Comstock Resources, Inc.

We have reviewed the consolidated balance sheet of Comstock Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Comstock Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the year then ended [not presented herein] and in our report dated February 26, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph for new accounting standards relating to the manner in which basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated and the presentation of noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries, and a change in oil and gas reserves and related disclosures as a result of adopting new oil and gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements.  In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Revenues –

Our oil and gas sales increased $37.7 million (55%) to $106.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $68.4 million for the first quarter of 2009.  This increase primarily resulted from an increase in natural gas production as well as stronger natural gas and oil prices.  Our production in the first quarter of 2010 of 18.8 Bcfe increased 34% as compared to 14.1 Bcfe that we produced in the first quarter of 2009.  The production increase is primarily attributable to our drilling activity in the Haynesville shale formation in East Texas and North Louisiana.  Our average realized natural gas price increased by 12% and our average realized oil price increased by 91% in the first quarter of 2010 as compared to the first quarter of 2009.  Our realized natural gas prices in 2009 include a hedging gain of $5.9 million which increased our realized natural gas price by $0.46 per Mcf.

17

Costs and Expenses –

Production taxes increased $0.6 million to $1.7 million for the first three months of 2010 from $1.1 million in the first three months of 2009 due to increased production and higher oil and natural gas prices.  

Gathering and transportation costs for the first three months of 2010 increased $3.3 million to $4.5 million as compared to $1.2 million in the first three months of 2009.  This increase mainly reflects the transportation costs relating to production from our Haynesville shale drilling program.  

Our lease operating expenses decreased by $0.4 million to $14.2 million for the first three months of 2010 as compared to $14.6 million for the first three months of 2009.  As a result of the growth in our production volume, our lease operating expense per Mcfe produced has decreased by 27% to $0.75 per Mcfe for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $1.03 per Mcfe for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Exploration costs of $1.2 million in the first three months of 2010 and $0.1 million in the first three months of 2009 related to seismic costs incurred relating to our exploratory activity.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") increased $12.1 million (26%) to $59.4 million in the first quarter of 2010 from $47.3 million in the first quarter of 2009.  The increase is primarily the result of the 34% increase in production.  Our DD&A per equivalent Mcf produced decreased $0.19 (6%) to $3.15 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from $3.34 for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  The lower DD&A rate per Mcfe reflects the growth in our reserves primarily from our Haynesville shale drilling program.

We recorded $0.2 million of impairments to our oil and gas properties during the first three months of 2010.

General and administrative expense, which is reported net of overhead reimbursements, were comparable at $9.8 million for the first quarters of 2010 and 2009.  Included in general and administrative expense is stock-based compensation of $4.2 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Interest expense increased $5.6 million to $7.8 million for the first quarter of 2010 from interest expense of $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2009.  The increase was primarily due to the interest on the senior notes we issued in October 2009.  We had no borrowings outstanding under our bank credit facility during the first quarter of 2010 as compared to average borrowings of $64.9 million in the first quarter of 2009.  We capitalized interest of $2.6 million and $1.6 million on our unevaluated properties during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Income tax expense for the first three months of 2010 consisted of a provision of $0.2 million as compared to a benefit for income taxes of $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  Our effective tax rate in both years is different from the statutory rate primarily due to the effects of non-deductible compensation and state income taxes.

We reported net income of $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 or $0.16 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $5.7 million or $0.12 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  The increase in income in 2010 was primarily due to our higher natural gas production and higher oil and natural gas prices.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Funding for our activities has historically been provided by our operating cash flow, debt or equity financings or asset dispositions.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010, our primary sources of funds were net cash flow from operations of $124.7 million.  Our net cash flow from operating activities increased $84.2 million (208%) in the first three months of 2010 from $40.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  This increase is primarily due to our higher production level, higher realized oil and natural gas prices and the receipt of $48.8 million in income tax refunds during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

18

Our primary needs for capital, in addition to funding our ongoing operations, relate to the acquisition, development and exploration of our oil and gas properties and the repayment of our debt.  In the first three months of 2010, we incurred capital expenditures of $94.0 million primarily for our development and exploration activities.  We funded our 2010 capital program with cash flow provided by operating activities.

The following table summarizes our capital expenditure activity, on an accrual basis, for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010		2009
	(In thousands)
Leasehold costs	$	9,911	$	3,672
Development drilling		64,836		50,609
Exploratory drilling		17,031		38,279
Other development		1,909		4,696
		93,687		97,256
Other		359		25
	$	94,046	$	97,281

We expect to spend approximately $385.0 million for development and exploration projects during 2010 and to fund our development and exploration activities with operating cash flow, cash on hand and additional borrowings under our bank credit facility.

The timing of most of our capital expenditures is discretionary because we have no material long-term capital expenditure commitments except for commitments for contract drilling services.  Consequently, we have a significant degree of flexibility to adjust the level of our capital expenditures as circumstances warrant.  As of March 31, 2010 we have contracted for the services of drilling rigs through September 2012 at an aggregate cost of $83.0 million and we have maximum commitments of $54.5 million to transport natural gas through July 2019.  We have obligations to incur future payments for dismantlement, abandonment and restoration costs of oil and gas properties.  These payments are currently estimated to be incurred primarily after 2015.  We record a separate liability for the fair value of these asset retirement obligations which totaled $6.7 million as of March 31, 2010.

We have a $850.0 million bank credit facility with Bank of Montreal, as the administrative agent.  The bank credit facility is a five-year revolving credit commitment that matures on December 15, 2011.  Indebtedness under the bank credit facility is secured by all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets and is guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries.  The bank credit facility is subject to borrowing base availability, which is redetermined semiannually based on the banks' estimates of the future net cash flows of our oil and natural gas properties.  The borrowing base may be affected by the performance of our properties and changes in oil and natural gas prices.  The determination of the borrowing base is at the sole discretion of the administrative agent and the bank group.  As of March 31, 2010, the borrowing base was $500.0 million, all of which was available.  The borrowing base was reaffirmed on April 30, 2010.  Borrowings under the bank credit facility bear interest, based on the utilization of the borrowing base, at our option at either (1) LIBOR plus 2% to 2.75% or (2) the base rate (which is the higher of the administrative agent's prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5% or 30 day LIBOR plus 1.5%) plus 0.5% to 1.25%.  A commitment fee of 0.5% is payable on the unused borrowing base.  The bank credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the payment of cash dividends in excess of $40.0 million, limit the amount of consolidated debt that we may incur and limit our ability to make certain loans and investments.  The only financial covenants are the maintenance of a ratio of current assets, including the availability under the bank credit facility, to current liabilities of at least one-to-one and maintenance of a minimum tangible net worth.  We were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2010.

19

We have $175.0 million of 6⅞% senior notes which are due March 1, 2012.  Interest is payable semiannually on each March 1 and September 1.  We also have $300.0 million of 8⅜% senior notes outstanding which are due October 15, 2017.  Interest is payable semiannually on each October 15 and April 15.  The senior notes are unsecured obligations and are guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries.

We believe that our cash flow from operations and available borrowings under our bank credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our operations and future growth as contemplated under our current business plan.  However, if our plans or assumptions change or if our assumptions prove to be inaccurate, we may be required to seek additional capital.  We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to obtain such capital, or if such capital is available, that we will be able to obtain it on acceptable terms.

ITEM 3:  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Oil and Natural Gas Prices

Our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources are highly dependent upon the prevailing market prices of natural gas and oil.  These commodity prices are subject to wide fluctuations and market uncertainties due to a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control.  Factors influencing oil and natural gas prices include the level of global demand for crude oil, the foreign supply of oil and natural gas, the establishment of and compliance with production quotas by oil exporting countries, weather conditions that determine the demand for natural gas, the price and availability of alternative fuels and overall economic conditions.  It is impossible to predict future oil and natural gas prices with any degree of certainty.  Sustained weakness in natural gas and oil prices may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, and may also reduce the amount of oil and natural gas reserves that we can produce economically.  Any reduction in our natural gas and oil reserves, including reductions due to price fluctuations, can have an adverse effect on our ability to obtain capital for our exploration and development activities.  Similarly, any improvements in natural gas and oil prices can have a favorable impact on our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources.  Based on our oil and natural gas production for the three months ended March 31, 2010, a $1.00 change in the price per Mcf of natural gas would have changed our cash flow by approximately $17.5 million and a $1.00 change in the price per barrel of oil would have resulted in a change in our cash flow for such period by approximately $0.2 million.

Interest Rates

At March 31, 2010 we had total long-term debt of $471.0 million.  Of this amount, $175.0 million bears interest at a fixed rate of 6⅞% and $296.0 million bears interest of a fixed rate of 8⅜%.  We had no borrowings outstanding under our bank credit facility.

ITEM 4:  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of March 31, 2010, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).  Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2010 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
